In the lush, otherworldly landscape of Elfhelm, the Flower Storm King initiates the mental reconstruction of Casca. Schierke and Farnese project their consciousness into the fractured landscape of Casca's mind, discovering that her soul has been ground down into fragments by the overwhelming horror of the Eclipse. Every step deeper into her subconscious risks drowning them in the memories of the hawks’ slaughter. As the healers battle the manifestations of Casca's PTSD, Guts remains in the physical world, forced to defend their vulnerable bodies against the magical instability caused by the ritual. The tension peaks when the dream world overflows into reality, forcing Casca to face the image of the Black Swordsman. When her eyes finally clear and she looks upon Guts, the recognition is immediate and devastating. The trauma is not erased; it is awakened, setting the stage for a heart-wrenching confrontation between two souls defined by the same unforgiving past.
